Matrix Block Sum

Given a 2D matrix of integers and a positive integer K, return a new matrix where each element at (i, j) is the sum of all elements of the original matrix within the K x K square centered at (i, j). If K is greater than the available rows/columns, consider the appropriate boundaries. Input Format: - The first line contains two integers, m and n, representing the dimensions of the matrix. - The second line contains the integer K. - The next m lines contain n integers each, representing the elements of the matrix. Output Format: - Print the resulting matrix, m lines of n integers each. Example: Input: 3 3 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Output: 45 50 54 54 62 66 63 72 76
